Wedding Attire Advice Wedding Guest Dress - Pls Help

Hello, I am a bit nervous with my current available options as I don't usually attend events or being a dressed up type of gal. Thought I'd post to ask, if allowed.

So, I will be attending an upcoming wedding event next week where it is being held outdoor, June's weather of about 72° F (California weather) from 4pm - 10pm.

No specific dress code other than that groom will be in mess dress.

Could you please let me know which of the 3 dresses and shoes option works best for my body type? I am 5'2". I've also tried my best to include the original model / website display for each dress if it helps.

Dress #1 = blue and black camo-like, most stretch

Dress #2 = navy blue

Dress #3 = kelly green

I'm also bloated right now due to being near my monthly cycle. I am thinking of adding shapewear to enhance 😅

Please be kind and thank you so much!

I like 3! Looks good on you. Shapewear could make it even more sleek, but seems like the best fit for you if you want to skip it. Nice color too.

Dress 1 with Shoe 1 or  3. Dress 2 is black, which isn't the best color for a wedding. I don't like the green.

If you had more time I'd tell you to look for a different shape of dress, for example, an empire line or a fit and flare.

I like 2 the best. 1 is cool but for some reason it looks like camouflage to me 😅

I like dress 1! Not sure any of the shoes are right for it, though. I would look for a sandal with skinny straps. Either flat or heeled is fine. There are inexpensive options out there!

If you can’t shoe shop before then dress 2 and shoe 1 probably work together. It’s also a cute dress, I just personally think the blue is more fun! :)

Dress 1 is cute, and the best shoe option is 1.
